Fighting Turtles.

A Wallingford dispatch tells of fight be-
tween two big swapping turtles on Community
lake, at Wallingford. The largest was esti-
mated to weigh fifty pounds. Those who saw
it say that the turtles would get several feet
apart and then come together like the Merri-
mac and the Cumberland, though not with
such serious results When together the
monsters would "catch as catch CAM and for
time it was anybody's fight The contest:
ants, which were near the top Of the water,
were so interested in tho afffay that they
failed to note the approach of the men in tho
boat until one was seized by the tail and
nearly captured. It's great strength and
weight proved too much for its wonl,i he cap
tor, who necessarily relinqusllcd his hold to
save himself from taking a header into the
water-Chica2o Times
